The Top is right.They have obligations to fullfil,such as money,time limits,exploration commitments,finding partners,ect.to keep a percentage of a lease.Mesa is in Geosurvey's name and all other lease are in other names,which I don't recall anymore.I have never seen any of EDEX's contracts and have no clue as to what commitments,timelines are required to stay current!Just as we are not privy to the percentages of each project,some I know are 5% working interest,some more.EDEX is not the owner of any lease just a bit player.Oh,in the spirit of honesty,I just put in a buy order today at .0005.Since pip is 70% accurate in finding commercial deposits,it would have to be a total hoax to miss again.Can't wait for my first divedend check.
